An unfamiliar voice with admiration clearly came from outside the courtyard wall: "At your age, you are able to do such a cruel thing, I am really amazed."
Mu Xinyue was suddenly startled.
"who?"
She drew her sword and looked towards where the sound came from.
A flower in front of my eyes.
A figure appeared in front of her like a ghost. Just by raising her hand slightly, it sealed the profound energy in her body and made her lose her ability to move.
Mu Xinyue only glanced at it, and her heart suddenly became cold.
It's over.
The person who appeared in front of him was wearing the uniform of the Imperial Police Department.
The police department found out about the murder just now.
She felt so depressed all of a sudden that she didn't even have the strength to speak.
After being caught, she could not escape the death penalty according to the laws of the empire.
"Don't be nervous, little girl."
The person in front of me had a soft voice and said: "I am not here to arrest you, nor will I hand you over to the Yunmeng City Police Station. Quite the contrary. I appreciate your performance just now. Why don't we make a deal? how?"
Mu Xinyue looked at the person in front of her.
He is a middle-aged man in his forties.
His body is very strong, and his skin and facial features do not look old, but his eyebrows are white, his nose is aquiline, and his eyes are gloomy, as if he is a creature that has always lived in the dark, revealing an indescribable sinisterness.
"If the deal you have in mind is such a dirty idea, then kill me as soon as possible. I will never agree."
Mu Xinyue suddenly calmed down and said calmly.
Haha, man.
Unexpectedly, the white-browed man said: "Don't worry, I have no interest in your body. To be precise, I am not interested in any woman. If the information in my hand is correct, you were once Lin Beichen's daughter." My friend, you really want to take revenge on him now, don’t you?”
Mu Xinyue looked up with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
What does the other party mean when he mentions this
The white-browed man said: "As long as you agree to testify against Lin Beichen at the Prodigy Competition Award Ceremony tomorrow, everything that happened tonight will be treated as if it never happened. I can even help you cover up your traces, even if you don't change your appearance." , and are exempt from investigation and accountability by the Police Department.”
"Testify against Lin Beichen?"
Mu Xinyue asked strangely: "What did you testify against him for?"
The white-browed man said: "It proves that he has an affair with evil spirits from outside the world."
Mu Xinyue frowned and said, "You
Who is he? "
The white-browed man said: "Knowing too much will not do you any good... But since you asked, I can tell you that I am a silver-medal priest in the provincial government's mansion, and my name is He Tidao."
"Why are you helping me?"
Mu Xinyue said doubtfully: "Even if I go to testify against Lin Beichen, I won't be able to produce any effective evidence. It's not convincing."
The white-browed man said: "You don't need to provide evidence, you don't even need to directly point out that Lin Beichen has an affair with the devil. You only need to make some verbal hints, such as his strange increase in strength, and the days when you were together. Here, he's done some weird things... very simple."
Mu Xinyue was silent.
But he was not thinking about whether he should correct Lin Beichen.
She would not feel the slightest psychological burden if she betrayed Lin Beichen.
Every man in this world deserves to die.
What she was thinking about was how to get the maximum benefit from this matter.
"I have a condition."
She raised her head slowly.
"Haha, you have the courage to ask me for conditions at this time." The white-browed man looked at Mu Xinyue's eyes with increasing admiration and said, "Tell me."
Mu Xinyue said: "I know that the empire's enrollment policy has changed this year. All the famous schools in the province have come to Yunmeng City to recruit students and are allowed to skip grades. I want a place to enter the five famous schools. It doesn’t matter if it’s any college.”
"interesting."
The white-browed man couldn't help but clapped his hands and applauded, saying: "You are really surprising me more and more. This offer is so good that I can't refuse it. You are an ambitious person." Only children will put forward such conditions, and in the near future, only ambitious people can live a better life."
"So, you agreed?"
After all, Mu Xinyue is still a young girl, and the city is not deep. She looked moved and said: "Can you really do this?"
The man with white eyebrows, He Ti Dao, said proudly: "Of course."
…
…
The second day.
It started to rain lightly in the middle of the night last night. In the morning, although the rain stopped, the sky was still filled with leaden clouds.
The air is very fresh.
Lin Beichen got up in the morning, finished cleaning up, and when he dressed up and went out, he saw Guangjiang with a wicked smile on his face, squatting in the yard, teasing the pregnant Ice Wolf with a piece of fresh meat, and having a great time.
"Have you finished your homework?"
Lin Beichen asked casually.
Hikari-chan's body stiffened
, as if he heard the most terrifying sound in the world, the fresh meat in his hand fell to the ground with a snap, then he screamed and ran into the house as if he was running away.
"When I come back after receiving the award, I have to check my homework."
Lin Beichen laughed and walked outside the bamboo courtyard.
Hikaru-chan's screams were faintly heard from behind.
The students from the Third Academy have already gathered at the school gate.
When Lin Beichen appeared, the crowd cheered, welcoming him like a hero.
Lin Beichen was surrounded, boarded the carriage, and headed to the Lord of Sword Temple.
The final award ceremony of Yunmeng City's Prodigy Competition over the years has been held in the Temple of the Lord of Swords. At that time, not only will there be a live broadcast, but prominent figures in the city will appear in the temple square to witness the ownership of the final crown and the new generation of young people. The birth of a king.
The carriage drove towards the temple.
Behind is a dark cheering crowd.
In addition to the students of the Third Academy, there are also citizens living in the surrounding areas.
Like a float parading through the streets, Lin Beichen was accepting everyone's admiration.
The whole city was plunged into a frenzied atmosphere.
The journey that originally only took twenty minutes took a full hour to finally reach Temple Square.
The huge viewing platform, awards stand, and flower arrangements in the square have all been set up.
Officials from the Education Department were maintaining order at the scene.
Basically all the big guys in the city have arrived.
The arrival of Lin Beichen immediately ignited the atmosphere at the scene.
There was another burst of cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami.
Under the personal guidance of Li Xiongfu, the boss of the Education Department, Lin Beichen came to the auditorium and sat down temporarily. When the award ceremony officially started, he was about to receive the most glorious coronation.
Countless envious eyes focused on Lin Beichen.
"Congratulations, classmate Lin, for finally realizing the promise you made before the game."
The Seventh Prince was also at the auditorium and took the initiative to greet Lin Beichen with a smile.
"Your Highness, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have become handsome again." Lin Beichen said with a smile, "It's great that you can appear here. The original bet will come to an end today."
The seventh prince laughed on the spot and said, "Don't worry, since I have promised you to be a witness, I will never break my promise."
